If you didn't do so well in a certain area, it makes sense to try to make up for it in the optional interview

They don't ask more than 1-2 questions
I assume they don't have our resume, but it would not matter

What I understand is -> They want you to come prepared with questions about McCombs

I mean it’s optional because you don’t have to do it but I believe if you do it it shows you’re being intentional

And that you’re interested
